FUNNY MONDAY: BIGFOOT AIRLINES?


When it comes to naming its airlines, Nepal has a strange sense of humor. In the photo above--between an uncomfortable travel agent and a sliver of Kip's face--are the logos of the country’s flight providers.

One airline proudly calls itself Agni Air, pronounced “agony.” From what we heard, they boast the least legroom in the industry and their safety record is painful to read (keep reading...this gets much worse).


Then there’s Yeti Airlines, named for the mythical mountain-dwelling creature that’s much like our own Bigfoot. They guarantee on-time arrivals and incredible in-flight cuisine—it’s just that no one’s ever actually seen either in real life.

And then there’s the best of all—Buddha Air. Huge disappointment. Of the two flights they actually offer, neither will transport you to Enlightenment. Most folks take a pass and fly Kingfisher Air instead, which happens to be India'a No. 1 selling beer. No Enlightenment, but their in-flight service promises little agony, plus their planes and free-flowing beer actually exist, so there's that.

  1. And who's to say they aren't becoming 'westernized', or did we actually learn from them?
